What a day! ☀️

Our ‘Chartered Akiltants’ took on the Aberdeen Kiltwalk on Sunday, walking from Banchory to Duthie Park in support of so many brilliant charities.

With 5,500 walkers raising funds for 500 different causes, it was amazing to be part of something so special alongside the wider Kiltwalk community.

We’re incredibly proud of everyone who took part – and as Gold Sponsors, we’re delighted to support such an inspiring event.

It was also a double celebration for us this year, marking 90 years of Johnston Carmichael and 10 years as a Gold Sponsor… and there were smiles from start to finish!

This year, we’re proud to mark 90 years of supporting businesses across Scotland and beyond ✨

From our beginnings in 1936 to becoming one of the country’s leading independent firms, our story has always been shaped by the same principles: doing things well, supporting our clients and investing in our people.

Ninety years is a long time in business - long enough to see industries shift, technology transform the profession and markets evolve.

Here’s to celebrating the past, and to continuing to move forward with purpose.

As we celebrate a major milestone this year, we’re taking the opportunity not just to reflect on our history, but to look ahead with purpose.

Our journey has taken us from a small practice in the Highlands and Moray to a firm with a presence across the UK.

Looking forward, the world of business will continue to evolve, just as it has throughout our firm’s story. What remains constant is our commitment to delivering high quality advice, developing talented people, and staying true to the values that have shaped us from the beginning.

The next chapter is already underway, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.
